“So this is basically vapor money?”

more accurately: just vapor!

crypto has zero attributes of actual currency, with the main three attributes of currency being completely absent: 1.) unit of account (e.g., prices of everything cited in U.S. dollars); 2. medium of exchange (everyone buys and sells all goods and services with it); and 3.) store of value (relatively stable value that allows relatively stable accumulation [savings])

"No different. I’m glad they have a way to preserve some of the historical artifacts from the wreckage. It’s incredible what they can do now."

I agree. Several years ago when a touring Titanic Exhibit was in Boston, I traveled there to see it. I'm glad they were able to bring artifacts back to the surface and preserve them for people to view. I find underwater archaeology extremely interesting. French underwater Archaeologist Franck Goddio has been conducting underwater expeditions off the coast of Egypt for over 20 years. One of his discoveries was the underwater port city of Thonis-Heracleion. His finds have been on tour around the world in years past.
